What we’re about
ODSC brings together the open source and data science communities with the goal of helping its members learn, connect and grow.
The focus of this Meetup group is to allow ODSC to work with Meetup groups, non-profits, and other organizations to present informative lectures, workshops, code sprints and networking events to help grow the use of open source languages and tools within the data science and data-centric community. As such, our specific goals are:
1. Build a collaborative group to work with other Meetup groups, non-profits, and other organizations.
2. Promote the use of open source languages and tools amongst data scientists and others.
3. Host educational workshops.
4. Spread awareness of new open source languages and tools that can be used in data science.
5. Contribute back to the open source community.
Who is this meetup for?
• Data engineers, analysts, scientists, and other practitioners
• R, Python and other software engineers who work with data or want to learn
• Data visualization developers and designers
• Non-technical team leads, executives, and other decision makers from data centric startups and large companies looking to utilize open source tools

See all- WEBINAR "Are Your APIs Ready for AI Agents? A 90-Day Action Plan"Link visible for attendees
Pre-registration is REQUIRED.
Add to your calendar - https://hubs.li/Q03z5c0Z0AI agents are only as effective as the APIs they rely on, and most infrastructure isn’t ready.
This session presents a strategic 90-day playbook designed for engineering leaders who want to prepare their APIs for intelligent automation. You’ll learn how to transform fragmented systems into structured, machine-readable interfaces that AI agents can discover, understand, and execute with confidence.
We’ll cover a phased approach for modernizing your API ecosystem, including:
- Building clean, discoverable APIs with AI-consumable documentation
- Creating infrastructure that supports real-time, automated workflows
- Deploying and scaling AI agents across business-critical operationsIf your AI roadmap depends on dependable, scalable APIs, this session offers the blueprint to get there quickly.
